Answer:

The correct answer is Jennifer is running in a track meet.

Explanation:

 We call present participle those words ending in ing. In this case <em>Jennifer is </em><em>running </em><em>in a track meet</em>. It can be used as an adjective or as a verb, and this is what <u>differentiates it from the gerund</u>.

Used as adjective: Jennifer is <em>boring </em>

As a verb: Jennifer is<em> running. </em>

The present participle if used both as a verb or as an adjective, will always be accompanied by another verb ---- <em>is</em> boring ----- <em>is</em> running.

Given this information, we can verify that the correct answer is<em> Jennifer is running in a track meet.</em>

Select from the drop-down menu to correctly punctuate the sentence.
Luda [366]

Answer:

Semicolon

Explanation:

Using adjunctive adverbs, like <em>however</em>, is helpful to link two independent clauses in order to create just one sentence. They are positioned between a semicolon (;) and a comma (,). The writer does this so as to simplify speech and get ideas across in a clearer way.

The two sentences which are linked in this opportunity are "Everyone knows he is the best cook" and "he refused to enter the contest".

Which excerpt from the odyssey demonstrate the importance of hospitality in Greek society?
valina [46]

Hospitality is mentioned many times in Odysseus. It is known as xenia in the poem. One notable example is.

Here is a poor man come, a wanderer,

driven by want to beg his bread, and everyone

in hall gave bits, to cram his bag—only

Antinous threw a stool, and banged his shoulder

The lines show Odysseus disguised as a beggar and shares his bread with another beggar in a weird way because he had to defeat him in order to eat. However, Odysseus does not kill the old man and even shows his hospitality.

Explanation:

Here is a poor man come, a wanderer, driven by want to beg his bread, and everyone in hall gave bits, to cram his bagÑonly Antinous threw a stool, and banged his shoulder "Suppose Athena's arm is over us, and Zeus her father's, must I rack my brains for more?" "The cruel belly, can you hide its ache? How many bitter days it brings!" Odysseus only shook his head, containing thoughts of bloody work, as he walked on, then sat, and dropped his loaded bag again upon the door sill.
